Abstract
Description
- This description relates to devices for entertaining and stimulating an infant.
- Devices have been developed and configured to attach to a crib to provide entertainment and stimulation to an infant. A mobile is one such example.
- In one aspect, an apparatus includes a mobile body configured to attach to a side railing of a crib, a number of arms pivotally extending from the mobile body along at a first end, and a motor operably connected to the arms and including a controller. The arms articulate according to a predetermined sequence of the controller.
- In various examples, the mobile includes one or more of the following features. The arms can be attached to the mobile body along a longitudinal axis. The arms can be configured to move in parallel planes perpendicular to the longitudinal axis. The predetermined sequence can include a substantially wavelike motion. The controller provide a user with the capability to adjust the frequency and/or the amplitude of the wavelike motion. The predetermined sequence can include a sinusoidal function.
- In certain constructions, the arms of the mobile are each different lengths. Ornamental objects can be attached to the second end of the arms. In some examples, a flexible web extends between the arms. The mobile can also include a remote to control the operation of the mobile with a radiofrequency or infrared signal, for example. In further examples, the mobile includes a speaker to play sound effects and/or music. The mobile can include a number of lights configured to illuminate according to the movement of the arms, the sound effects and/or music.
- In another aspect, the mobile includes a mobile body configured to attach to a side railing of a crib, a number of arms pivotally extending from the mobile body and configured to articulate according to a substantially wavelike motion, and a motor operably connected to the arms and including a controller. In some examples, the arms are each different lengths. In certain examples, the controller can adjust the frequency and/or the amplitude of the wavelike motion.
- The details of one or more embodiments of the invention are set forth in the accompanying drawings and the description below. Other features and advantages of the invention will be apparent from the description and drawings, and from the claims.
-
FIG. 1 is a front view of a mobile. -
FIG. 2 is a rear view of the mobile ofFIG. 1 attached to a crib. -
FIGS. 3A and 3B show the mobile ofFIG. 1 with the articulating arms in first and second positions, respectively. -
FIG. 4A is a perspective exploded view of the mobile ofFIG. 1 . -
FIG. 4B is a detailed view ofFIG. 4A showing the arms and components for articulated the arms. -
FIG. 5 is a perspective view of a remote for control of the mobile ofFIG. 1 . - Like reference symbols in the various drawings indicate like elements.
- Referring now to the drawings, and particularly to
FIG. 1 , a mobile 10 can include abase 15 and a number of arms 20 a-20 d (collectively 20) which are pivotally connected at first ends 23 a-23 d at connectors 25 a-25 d disposed at aconnector assembly 30 located on thebase 10. The connectors 25 are configured to articulate the arms 20 in a predetermined sequence. In the example shown in the figures, the mobile 10 includes four arms 20 which are arcuate and include connectors 25 a-25 d arranged collinearly along theconnector assembly 30. In other examples, the mobile includes a greater number of arms 20 which are substantially linear and have connectors 25 which are not arranged collinearly along theconnector assembly 30. The arms 20 can also be serpentine or helical for example. - The
base 15 can include an on/off switch 35 and a number of other controls 40 a-40 e, which can include lights, for example. Thebase 15 can includeapertures 45 and a speaker positioned behind the apertures for playing sound effects and/or music. The controls 40 can control features of the mobile 10 such as the illumination of the lights contained within the on/offswitch 35 and controls 40, the movement of the arms 20, and/or the type and duration of the sound effect and/or music. - In some examples, a flexible web (not shown) can extend between the arms 20. In certain examples, ornaments 50 a-50 d can be attached to second ends 53 a-53 d of the arms 20 with a tether 55 a-55 d. The second ends 53 of arms 20 can be, for example, a loop. The ornaments 50 can include stuffed animals such as a bird, turtle, frog, butterfly and/or fish. During movement of the arms 20, the ornaments 50 move to entertain and stimulate the infant. In some examples, supplemental ornaments 60 a-60 d can be attached proximate the second end of the arms 20 to further adorn the mobile 10. The supplemental ornaments 60 can include, a leaf, for example.
- Referring now to
FIG. 2 , the mobile 10 can be attached toadjacent rails 70 of acrib 75 with anut 80 which engages threadedpost 85 extending from a back side of thebase 15. Thenut 80 can include one ormore concavities 90 to permit thenut 80 to be secured to therails 70 without tools. As shown, the second ends 53 of the arms 20 project well above the interior of thecrib 75 for entertaining and stimulating an infant when the mobile 10 is in use. - Referring now to
FIGS. 3A and 3B , a mobile 10 is shown with arms 20 of differing length. InFIG. 3A , thelongest arm 20 d is shown in the highest position, while inFIG. 3B thelongest arm 20 d is shown in the lowest position. Beginning from one side of theassembly 30, each arm 20 is progressively articulated outward in the direction of arrow A and subsequently progressively articulated inward, opposite the direction of arrow A according to a predetermined sequence. In some examples, the motor drives the arms 20 in similar oscillatory motions and different phases, such that the motions of the arms together simulate a wave motion. In certain examples, the arms 20 are articulated according to sinusoidal function. In some examples the arms 20 are articulated substantially randomly. Other predetermined sequential movement of the arms is contemplated.FIG. 3B also depicts a web 98 extending between the arms 20 to for an alternative simulated wave motion. - Referring now to
FIGS. 4A and 4B , afront housing 100 and arear housing 105 define thebase 15 of the mobile 10. Thefront housing 100 includes aslot 103 sized to receive a topfront cover 104 and the arms 20. Therear housing 105 can include abattery access door 107. The arms 20 are each connected at the first ends 23 to rockers 110 a-110 d and rocker inners 115 a-115 d. The rocker inners 115 engage acam 120 which rotates about acam shaft 125 to rotate the rocker inners 115 about arocker shaft 127 and articulate the arms 20 according to a predetermined sequence. Thecam 120 andcam shaft 125 are operably linked to amotor 130 by agear train 135, a clutch 140 and a rocker axleclutch gear 145. The clutch 140 andclutch gear 145 disengages thecam shaft 125 from themotor 130 should the arms 20 become obstructed. The arms 20 can be biased in or against the direction of the arrow A (FIG. 3 ) by spring elements 150 a-150d. - The
motor 130 is disposed within first and second motor covers 155, 160, respectively, which are all positioned between the first, second, third and fourth motor housing covers 165, 170, 175 and 180, respectively. - The
base 15 includes amain controller 200 and amain switch 205. Both the main controller and themain switch front housing 100 by first and second controller supports 207, 209, respectively. Themain switch 205 is operably connected to the controllers 40 to control the movement of the arms 20, the illuminations of controllers 40 and/or the sound effects and music. Aspeaker 210 is positioned in aspeaker mount 215 proximate to theapertures 45 of thefront housing 100. - Referring now to
FIG. 5 , a remote 220 include aremote base 225, at least oneremote switch 230 and anantenna 235. In one embodiment, theantenna 235 is arcuate to serve as a hook for hanging the remote 220 in a convenient location. The remote 220 is configured to wirelessly communicate with themain controller 200 of the mobile 10 by an infrared or radiofrequency signal, for example. A corresponding infrared or radiofrequency receiver can be located on the base 15 (not shown). In various examples, the remote 220 can control the movement of the arms 20, the illuminations of controllers 40 and/or the sound effects and music of the mobile 10. - A number of embodiments of the invention have been described. Nevertheless, it will be understood that various modifications may be made without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention. Accordingly, other embodiments are within the scope of the following claims.
